Une nouvelle planche de Corridart encrée, avec René Viau et le kiosque à broue. Sous la plume de Siris, on retourne en 1976 à Montréal juste avant les Olympiques (publication à La Pastèque en 2026).

Corridart was the cultural component of the 1976 #Montreal Olympics. It was destroyed over several days - 50 years ago - on the order of Mayor Jean Drapeau

It is by any objective measure the single largest act of arts censorship in Canadian history

Everyone's a Critic
Corridart was designed to showcase Quebec artists during the 1976 Montreal Olympics. But, as Taylor C. Noakes writes, one very important person was less than impressed.

9 yrs after Drapeau committed #Canada’s largest act of arts censorship, he wound up inadvertently providing the land on which Corridart architect Mel Charney would complete his magnum opus, the Canadian Centre for Architecture’s interpretive garden

While there's always a lot of debate about whether the #Montreal Olympics was a good idea, there's far less discussion about Corridart, an arts exhibit criticial of mayor Jean Drapeau

Its destruction was the largest act of art censorship in Canadian history

First big article for #Canada's History magazine, on Corridart, the arts & culture component of the 1976 Olympics, which was destroyed by Jean Drapeau because it was "too critical" of his admin

Corridart in the news!
Corridart was a public art project, built along a major street as part of the cultural side of 1976 Montreal Summer Olympic Games, and when Mayor Drapeau finally saw it, he order it all torn down, immediately, right now, this minute.

Corridart in the news!
Public art project was completed, then our mayor saw it, ordered it torn down.

Montreal gazette looking back at Montreal's 1976 summer olympics and some of the endless scandals and the "head-in-the-sand nothing-to-see-here" bozo-level incompetence of then-mayor Jean Drapeau.

Corridart was torn down in the middle of the night by city workers with a police escort

The artists weren't allowed to remove their works

It was Jean Drapeau's way of flexing what muscle he had left after the Quebec government took over the #Montreal Olympics

Latest for Canada's History mag, the story of Corridart, the 1976 #Montreal Olympics scandal everyone forgot about

Years later, the man who ordered its destruction would wind up inadvertantly providing land the project's architect used to build his magnum opus

Just days before the 1976 Montreal Olympics were to open, the mayor of Montreal took a car drive to see the Corridart public art project lining the streets near the Olympique Stadium.
The next day he ordered it all torn down and thrown into the garbage.
